DNS Record

DNS record subdomains are useful if you need to point a subdomain to
another IP or hostname. There are several types of DNS records you can
create:

'A' record. 'A' record is used to point
your subdomain to an IP address. This IP address can be any IP address, not
confined to server IP address. For example your broadband connection at home is
assigned a static IP by your ISP, then you can use A record to point a
subdomain to this IP address. After that you can call it by using the hostname,
for instance: home.example.com.

'NS' record. 'NS' record is used to
delegate control of your subdomain to a DNS server. For example, your company
have a branch office in France, and they elect to manage their own web site.
You can make subdomain france.example.com pointing to their DNS server using NS
records. Then they will be able to control france.example.com and configure it
on their own without consulting with you first.

'CNAME' record. 'CNAME' is an alias to
another existing hostname. For instance, you can make foo.example.org an
alias to foo.example.com.

Go to Create New Subdomain or DNS Record,
enter the name of subdomain you want to create, select DNS
record, and then click Next.

On the next screen you can choose whether you want to create A
record, CNAME record or NS record. Choose accordingly and press
Next to continue.

The next screen will differ according to the choice you made on
the previous screen. If you choose A record you will be asked an IP address to
point the A record to. If you choose CNAME record you will be asked another
hostname to make alias to. If you choose NS record you will be asked up to four
DNS servers to delegate to. Answer the question and click
Next to continue.

On the next screen you will be confirmed of your choice.
Press Finish to continue.
